RE: Is the Gender Divide in the Crypto World Necessary?
You just run against the walls of sexism and being excluded for no reason except your gender, so often, that you can't see anymore, why you were working in this field in the first place.
You loose the joy and this feeling of achievement never arrives in your brain.
In film we also have the same horrible situation about investment. Last year there was NO film funded by the German National Film Fund that is directed by a woman. It's such an endless cycle.
Furthermore, there is this illusion of progess (and I believe this is also very true for the Crypto-World) - the illusion of things becoming better / that we are on the road to more equality. But this is simply FALSE. At least in tech and film.

I'm so sorry to hear this @elenahornfilm and yet completely am not surprised because as you say, we've all experienced it and are so tired of it!!
On a more hopeful note I will say that as a creative here on steemit, you CAN fun your projects and I would love to see you be able to! I know a film is a giant undertaking needing a giant budget but miracles have happened! I will look at your blog to see if you have any trailers or examples of your filmmaking.
It makes me angry to hear that the female characters in this crop of German movies will likely be written by men and inevitably directed by them. :(
This is such a big part of the problem: men are in charge of the narrative about women and female directors have to compromise so much to get movies done that their voices end up distorted.
